The Office: Season whatever

[Anderson]

Exit James Spader.

Hopefully with correct linkage now!

This was to be expected. What I want to know is what they're going to do for what's probably going to be their last season (2012/2013).

I wish Helms would convince Cedar Rapids pal John C. Reilly to come play.

Assuming there is a ninth season. Have they closed new deals for Krasinski and Helms?

They can get Krasinski. I see Helms working out a Spader type deal. Wilson's already prepping for the spin-off and most of the show's best writers are setting up Dwight's show or Friday Night Dinner.

What? They're building the back-door pilot to air in April. The Florida trip is setting up a lot of it.

That sucks. He was fucking hilarious.

Oh you know. Just crabby about the idea of spinning off Dwight into his own show.

Now they can make Packer the new boss. At least we'd finally get a full-on bastard in charge.

I just got done with a four page email about how NBC has all but admitted they don't know what they're doing.

Here's what's on the table.

1) Shorter Season 9 - to accomodate Helms and Krasinski
2) Season 9 reboot
3) Just billing Season 9 as the final season and miking it.
4) Trying to make the best, as they realize they don't have any pilots worth a shit for 2012-2013. (Whitney Cummings should be thanking Satan for this).

[Abraham Smashington]

The Coconut Penis stuff was great. I'm going to miss Spader sooooo much.

[Anderson]

What's so super fascinating about all of this is that the shake-ups behind the scenes that have arrived and will be arriving throughout the summer have no set-up on the show.

So, the September season opener is going to have a fuckload of explaining to do.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that.

Couldn't find a clearer case of Wedon'tgiveafuckitos than that finale.

[Abraham Smashington]

Last night's opening was probably the best prank Jim has ever pulled on Dwight. Rainn nailed it.

[Chris Miller]

Plop and Fart applauding everything Andy does got me.

[Abraham Smashington]

yeah. And I know most people can't stand her character, but I really dig Catherine Tate in this.
